Hey Bowfisherman, you could always pull over to the side of the road on the way to the hunt, and pop a primer or two in the truck.

Sight your rifle in for a clean barrel.
This has worked very well for me.

But also know what the difference is in POI on a fowled.
That is a big issuewhen using 777 and the 250 grain SST/ Shockwave in my Encore.The difference between a clean and dirty bore is4-6" or even more. There is nochange toPOI wheni use JSG and Pinnacle.

Not a bad idea. I guess I'll figure all this out at the range. Depends on a lot of factors.
